Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QuikMaths at none against Quickies's 1. QuikMaths also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (327 vs 13). Quickies's advantage is rating (3.5 vs 3.3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Quickies holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: QuikMaths has 327 ratings behind it against 13, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 26% of Quickies's written reviews are positive against 38% of QuikMaths's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Quickies ships an update every 7 months, QuikMaths monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 15, 2026 and August 11, 2026 respectively.
